How is energy usage handled during our stay?
Electricity costs in Providenciales are significantly higher than in many destinations. To keep nightly rates fair, some villas monitor energy usage during each stay. The electrical meter may be recorded at check-in and check-out, with reasonable usage included and excess consumption billed separately. This encourages mindful use of air conditioning and power while maintaining comfort.
